Sniper Meta mistake
Making long range fights more prominent with a super buffed sniper Meta is a horrible mistake in a movement oriented game. Every game is so dull and boring when you get shot from 5 directions by 5 te...

it is not all as bad as you make it sound.
I played 4 matches last night Solo Q ranked and placed top ten in all of the games one was a top 5 and the last game we won.
None of my sqd mates were premade duo's either so we were completely a three stack of Randoms.
Sure Vantage is out there and makes things difficult but what legend makes anything easy?
@Asmodeus566
I played approx 10 matches yesterday and 75% of them I was stomped on by pre-mades. Once two tapped just by Snipers mark and once one-shotted by Snipers-mark + Longbow dont even know from where.
Those are Gold2 games for you... Im used to play in Diamond till S13 where its just pre-made Preds there (then I stopped playing). Game is slowly becoming unplayabble for me, I mean its okay if you play just few games, but I was used to play 8+ hours per day and I could enjoy that before S13 gone live and its even worse in S14, dont wanna see S15. To be honest looting is the part I enjoy the most nowadays.
It is really bad or Imj just bad in the game.
you said this "I played 10 matches yesterday and 75% of them I was stomped on by pre-mades."
I think this is your greater concern and not really Vantage.
But like i said before Solo Q-ing is not as bad as you make it out to be at least in Plat and below.
If you want to compete with the diamonds, Masters and Preds you are going to have to play like most of them do and three stack.
@Asmodeus566
Its not that bad later in splits, but it is bad first week or two.
I think Im gonna pass on competing at all. I dont have what this game is based on. 🙂I just wish we could get random only lobbies for Ranked, but I dont think it will ever happen.
Duo stacks are not that bad if one of them is random, I dont see any difference in that, but 3-stack is just too much, they are tyoo coordinated and stuff playing like one and this is what I think is ruining the game for solo players.
Vantage is broken, its just free charged sentinel the whole game as third weapon and when abused by pre-made its one free kill at the start of every fight.
I agree the first week or two of a new season and the first week of the split can be grueling.
I do think you have what it takes and from what you describe you have attained at least at some point Diamond Rank, I have never gotten there myself so do not count yourself out.
- @Asmodeus566 Brother you need to accept the fact that your personal experience is not the same experience MOST people are having. So either you're one of the teams that camps ring and snipes from a safe distance which is not what this game was meant to be or you are playing in low level lobbies.
Enlighten me please on What is it that you "Think" the game was meant to be?
My understanding is that it is a BR where the goal is to win or am I mistaken?
Is it that you think the goal is to get like 6 kills or more and constantly place 12 or worse?
Outside of pure enjoyment, games are meant to be played to win right? or am I wrong ?
Case in point, when have you ever heard of a team/player in any game or sports say hey lets go out and score a lot of points and lose the game?
We may have different views and that is fine by me, we may have different play styles and that is also fine by me. In fact that is what being a part of a Forum is, sharing different views and experiences, to either help one another out and or to help possibly improve the game.
Again good luck to you in the Outlands.
